$100,000 Phase I STTR NSF Grant

ALD NanoSolutions Receives Grant

June 22, 2005

ALD NanoSolutions, Inc. has announced today the award of a $100,000 Phase I Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) grant from the National Science Foundation for "Novel Electrode Materials for Multi-Layer Capacitors." These funds will be used to begin the development of composite nickel/titania particles with improved sintering capabilities for multi-layer capacitors, as well as to prove the scalability of the production process. This research, done in partnership with the George/Weimer Laboratories at the University of Colorado, Boulder, is an important part in the company’s continuing effort to prove the flexibility of atomic layer deposition in the custom designing of composite particles.
